Hi Ross,
The problem is this line:
var mainBrowserWindow:HTMLLoader;
It declares mainBrowserWindow as an HTMLLoader. But HTMLLoader (the
class) doesn't have a urlToLoad function, so the compiler gets
confused, not knowing mainBrowserWindow is really a
BasicBrowserWindow.
Replace with this:
var mainBrowserWindow:BasicBrowserWindow;
and the problem should go away.
HTH,
Ian
